Stephen King blasts semiautomatics: ‘Innocent blood will continue to flow’
Washington Times ^ | June 19, 2015 | Jessica Chasmer

“Until responsible gun owners support responsible gun control laws, innocent blood will continue to flow. How many times must we see this?” Mr. King, who has openly supported banning semiautomatic weapons, tweeted to his 743,000 followers Thursday evening.

“Too many closed minds on gun control. Worse, far too many PROUDLY closed minds. Meanwhile, the American shooting gallery remains open,” he wrote. “According to Bloomberg Business, gun deaths will exceed traffic fatalities in America this year. Can’t put a seatbelt on a semi-automatic.”

I cannot find the article but, I read somewhere today that 31 of the most recent mass killings have been committed by persons on psychiatric drugs. And that psychiatrists tell LE to hide that from the public in fear that those on the drugs may stop using them.

Free the minds of drugs or get them off the street into institutions.

And while I am at it lets get rid of this “political correctness” nonsense. One of the shooter’s buddies said today he knew something bad was going down but that he didn’t turn him in as “who am I to judge another.”
Come on!!!

Stephen King continues to prove that he has no understanding of wholesome joy and vibrant mental health...Stuck in twisted and dark fiction.

How about knives... should we all give up our knives - even steak knives and butter knives so we can stop stabbings?

The first semi-auto pistol was marketed in 1893. A little bit late for whatz-his-name to be railing against them.

And his writing hasn't influenced liberal minds? Sure...blood is bad, unless he's earning revenue when it's flowing.

He’s always been strange looking. His haircuts don’t help, either.

If King wasn’t infected with liberalism, he could write a good horror story about how scary and dangerous liberalism is. His book; Needful Things comes close.

Anyone who remembers the olden days will remember how the MSM went bonkers when Bobby Kennedy was killed with an eight shot .22 revolver, or George Wallace shot with a five shot .38 spl revolver, or John Lennon killed with a five shot .38 revolver, or Ronald Reagan shot with a six shot .22 RG piece of crap revolver, or when Ronald Gene Simmons killed half his family by strangulation and the others with a single action .22 Ruger revolver.
Back then, the MSM considered revolvers to be E-vil!

How many killers have been inspired by a Stephen King novel?

Yep. I agree. While he may be a good author in the genre he writes in; he is the perfect example of stupid is as stupid does otherwise.

Heck; he can’t even cross the street without getting hit by a car and breaking his leg. Maybe he should be working on banning street crossing. Something he has experience with.

“Too many closed minds on gun control. Worse, far too many PROUDLY closed minds.

I couldn't agree more, thought doubtful the way he intends.

And this from the guy whose "Gunslinger" novel refers to a Ruger revolver with a safety!

God save the Republic from such "hearsay" experts.

He’s got a lot to say for someone who writes at the 8th grade level.

Drop him off in Baltimore...
